His dreamings include that of the Bush Turkey (Arwengerrp), Emu (Ankerr) Tucker and Lizard (Arlewatyerr). In his work Cowboy Louie depicts his Bush Turkey (Arwengerrp) Dreaming using traditional dot symbols on a background of dark, earthy colours. His work is characterised by geometric shapes outlined in dots. The circles, points and triangles represent the Bush Turkey’s tracks and flight path as he moves between the soakages (represented by concentric circles of dots) over Cowboy Louie’s country. The tracks of the Bush Turkey Ancestor show that this is an important creation site for the bush turkey ancestors. Note: The Bush Turkey spends much of its time walking and is therefore an easy target for hunters. They are a much sought after source of tucker. http://www.utopianaboriginalart.com.au/aboriginal_art/cowboy_louie_pwerle/bush_turkey_dreaming_2/ http://www.utopianaboriginalart.com.au/aboriginal_art/cowboy_louie_pwerle/bush_turkey_dreaming_2/ Cowboy Louie Pwerle Bush Turkey (Arwengerrp) Dreaming Cowboy Louie Pwerle Eastern Desert Eastern Desert Art investment Sat, 06 Aug 2011 13:17:13 +0930 Bush Turkey - he goes there - all over my country - he makes tracks to this waterhole. - Cowboy Louie Pwerle]]> http://www.utopianaboriginalart.com.au/aboriginal_art/cowboy_louie_pwerle/bush_turkey_arwengerrp_dreaming_1/ http://www.utopianaboriginalart.com.au/aboriginal_art/cowboy_louie_pwerle/bush_turkey_arwengerrp_dreaming_1/ Cowboy Louie Pwerle Bush Turkey (Arwengerrp) Dreaming corporate Cowboy Louie Pwerle Eastern Desert Eastern Desert Art featured Sat, 19 Apr 2008 17:01:47 +0930 'My Dreaming - Bush Turkey - see the tracks - he goes there and there - all over my country - he makes tracks on this big soakage on my country' Cowboy Louie Pwerle]]> http://www.utopianaboriginalart.com.au/aboriginal_art/cowboy_louie_pwerle/bush_turkey_arwengerrp_dreaming/ http://www.utopianaboriginalart.com.au/aboriginal_art/cowboy_louie_pwerle/bush_turkey_arwengerrp_dreaming/ Cowboy Louie Pwerle Bush Turkey (Arwengerrp) Dreaming corporate Cowboy Louie Pwerle Eastern Desert Eastern Desert Art Tue, 19 Jun 2007 15:59:35 +0930 This painting depicts an aerial view of Cowboy's country as created by the Bush Turkey Ancestor. His distinctive work consists of hundreds of carefully executed minute dots painted from an aerial perspective. Cowboy uses iconography and abstract imagery to depict the sacred ceremony and the sites pertaining to that dreaming. The sacred sites are where the Dreaming occurs and where the power is still all pervasive. The symbols or signs denote places and sites or the tracks and pathways of the Ancestor. It is this system of beliefs - known as the Dreamtime (Altyerr) to the Anmatyarr and Alyawarr people of the Eastern Desert region – which form the basis of their law, social structure, kinship and governance. For the Alyawarr and Anmatyarr Bush men, the past is still alive and vital today and the Ancestor Spirits and their powers are present in the forms into which they changed at the end of the 'Dreamtime' or 'Dreaming', as the stories reveal. http://www.utopianaboriginalart.com.au/aboriginal_art/cowboy_louie_pwerle/bush_turkey_arnwekety_dreaming_1/ http://www.utopianaboriginalart.com.au/aboriginal_art/cowboy_louie_pwerle/bush_turkey_arnwekety_dreaming_1/ Cowboy Louie Pwerle Bush Turkey (Arwengerrp) Dreaming Cowboy Louie Pwerle Eastern Desert Eastern Desert Art featured investment Tue, 19 Jun 2007 15:36:29 +0930 'My Dreaming - Bush Turkey - see the tracks - he goes there and there - all over my country - he makes tracks on this big soakage on my country' - Cowboy Louie Pwerle]]> http://www.utopianaboriginalart.com.au/aboriginal_art/cowboy_louie_pwerle/bush_turkey_dreaming_1/ http://www.utopianaboriginalart.com.au/aboriginal_art/cowboy_louie_pwerle/bush_turkey_dreaming_1/ Cowboy Louie Pwerle Bush Turkey (Arwengerrp) Dreaming corporate Cowboy Louie Pwerle Eastern Desert Eastern Desert Art sold Tue, 30 Jan 2007 14:47:56 +0930 Cowboy Louie Pwerle is one of the highly regarded Elders of Utopia and is senior custodian for the Bush Turkey Ancestor.
